I’m honestly a little befuddled that an incorporated entity could put “our core product may end humanity” in its IPO prospectus, and we didn’t just immediately march its entire executive team to the nearest bog and ritually strangle them, then disband the company and redistribute its assets, then gather and incinerate all their intellectual property.
I think it's because nobody takes them seriously and if they're gonna burn a bunch of billionaires' money as part of their unholy summoning rituals, no biggie.
@suetanvil absolutely agree. I just look wistfully at the horizon and think, ‘even if these clowns are just doing it to be edgy, there ought to be consequences’
@Cacotopos heyyyy, I wasn’t aware “a bog frogmarching then strangle” angle existed. Let’s do that.
Any ‘surely our enlightened society is better than this’ detractor needs to stare into the OCPMEH abyss until this logic clicks.
@cascheranno I’m just trying to come at this with a vague respect for the past 😜
@Cacotopos atomic age mutually-assured destruction, step aside. Techbros are extending teh Farquaad mindset : “All of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make.”

@Cacotopos @jalefkowit The end of the world is a very profitable venture.
